How can you be considered to have one of the best places to live in the world if you turn your oceans into cesspools?
I require a dance of intellect. Put on your thinking shoes!

Dance with us, LRR! Dance with us into oblivion!

At what point do you think "I should stick ice cubes in my bum?" Is it some weird fetish I don't know about? It just seems painful to me.


Up to you.
Yeah, kind of.
Not really. Just cold.


Same, except replace "Not really, just cold" with "only at first." Ice cubes can have sharp edges.

Oh. I rounded out the edges first, so didn't have that much of a problem.

If you guys are trying to keep cool why are you wearing pants?

I'm sorely disappointed--I thought the Intrepid Battle Axe of the Boar was supposed to be awesome. 32 damage? Pfft.

I guess Bill's got a high resistance to pork. (Though James is supposed to be the Hampire)

Malls and big stores do, some offices, sure. But NO ONE has them in their home.


Wrong, actually. My dad went and bought a used air conditioner for $50 a couple weeks ago, it's sitting in the window right across from me but not being used right now because its not so hot

This just reminded me. Does no one in Canada wear shorts in the summer? I mean we have seen some of you wear them as 'costumes', but wouldn't logic say "It's hot out, therefore I must minimize heat capture. Shorts allow heat dispersal so I should weat shorts."

Granted I wear shorts when it is 50 deg. F and feel comfortable.

shorts = pansy pants. Jeans & t-shirts and/or sweatshirt ALL YEAR. That's what working on farms from ~10 on does to ya... teaches you to always wear pants/jeans and shirts! :D Even on 100+f 80%humidity days! (you wouldn't believe how cool underneath a hay wagon on a prickly hay field feels in 105f after bailing hay for several hours. Seriously, it's the similar sensation you get from walking outside in 80f to inside with 60f AC).

i loved this video. Very relavent a few weeks ago. Gotta say though, it's not the heat that gets you, it's the humidity. Two years ago I went to Dallas for QuakeCon. It was 90f @ 90% humidity when I left buffalo & was 97f @ 15/20% humidity in Dallas. Man, that felt soooooooo cool.

To bad you guys don't get a lot of snow. Could have a "ways to keep warm" video.

I wear shorts all year round. Only if there is snow more than ankle deep (highly usually in Victoria) or if I am going out to a pub or some other entertainment in the evening do I wear long pants.

The Happy Friar I have to agree with the long pants and shirts when working out doors. Not only are you less dirty, less likely to get a sun burn and a little less likely to hurt yourself but you are also cooler.

I have some sweet board shorts on in that video, and James & I have been wearing shorts all day working. I miss my bathtub of ice, but at $12 a pop I think I'll have to go with out.

That is why you do ice baths when you are in a hotel with an ice machine.

We had a monsoon with thunder and lightning, and seriously several inches of rain in just under an hour.

It was nice.
